Dress like a cow, score free chicken

It’s that time of the year again, time to show your stripes ... er, spots and declare your love for cows.

Dress like a cow on Friday, July 11 and you will be treated to a free meal from Chick-fil-A.

Just visit any participating Chick-fil-A location wearing cow attire from head to hoof and select any breakfast, lunch or dinner combo meal for free. Children fully dressed like a cow may select a kid’s meal.

Those only partially dressed in cow attire may select any breakfast, lunch or dinner entrée.

No purchase is necessary to redeem either offer. For additional information and restrictions on the deal, visit the Chick-fil-A website.

Don’t have a ready-made cow costume just hanging in your closet? Make your own with this do-it-yourself kit.
